Question

Please let me know how you all feel about Israel, the Jewish people, and Christians.  Is Jerusalem mentioned in the Koran?  Thank you.

Answer

Peace be upon those that follow the guidance.  It appears you are looking for a discussion board or a site that has general information on Islam.  This site is a site that explains how to recite the Qur’an and answers questions concerning reciting the Qur’an and its rules. 

We do not entertain general questions, but would just say there cannot be a blanket statement about the Jews and Christians anymore than there could be a blanket statement about Muslims. 

The Aqsa mosque is mentioned in the Qur’an, but the word Jerusalem per say is not, but is referred to without the specific word. 

You are welcome.
